Re: DQ67SW Need to enable IP-KVM vPro

Thank you guys really helpful.

VNC Viewer Plus works, but when using the Remote .ISO mounted from my Windows 7 machine to the host the connection will timeout after a few minutes if there is no interaction with the AMT screen. This is a pain in the ****, unlike my Lantronix Spider KVM with USB virtual media who drops the media after 1 hour inactivity.

I emailed VNC about it and they refered me to Intel support, I changed the BIOS AMT Timeout settings to its maximum 65XXX minutes. Still having issues.

Is there a better management tool than VNC -- should I dare to ask, free?

Also this technology sounds promising, I usually build Supermicro servers with built-in IPMI - but since Intel AMT Is built-in there is the possibility to save costs by using it... the only problem is I do not know how to secure my AMT network (it does not depend on the operating system or power status of the machine, so I don't know how to prevent other people or networks from sending magic packets and discovering the machines).

One last point, is there a centralized management center for all vPro AMT machines? I noticed in the BIOS there is Encryption and all that, but in my simple setup Encryption is not enabled. I would like to enable encryption and setup a fake server if possible... any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi guys

I am new here and to vPro from Intel. I just purchased and built a Sandy bridge i5 2400 plus DQ67SW system and I need to be able to setup KVM/remote management. Would someone please guide me through and share the tools/software I need to install this?

On the BIOS (F2) I see Intel ME menu but only change password exists and it will not allow me to change it, I don't know what the default password is. I tried admin.

I need to remotely mount an .iso from my Windows 7 PC so that I can install the OS. Help is appreciated. I don't know how to use this new intel technology, is someone can break down what I need to do then I can dig in further, but for now I need to get the system online asap.

Thanks
